FUN, FUN, FUN!
This state fair was similar to most; the traffic to and from was backed-up. Unlike most state fairs, the people in the vehicles didn't seem to mind the wait. The weather was perfect--sunny and in the low 60's. The company I was with--what can I say? AWESOME!!! My cousin, Katie, her friend and neighbor, Julie, and Matt and I cruised the fair ground. We looked at antiques, quilts, art, jewelry, clothing, livestock, reptiles, crafts, etc. We ate...sorry, still too recent. I cannot even THINK of everything I ate--fair food is dangerous! I didn't get the chance, but it would have been fun to watch one of the oldest fair events--rat racing. (Yes, really!)

Quilt exhibit--thought you would enjoy this Jeanette! (I have other close-up photos if you are interested.) |

It must have been a tough competition--both pig and owner are fast asleep. |

The cabbage weighs 63 lbs. (This is for you, Diane!) |

Just couldn't resist taking a photo of this booth!

Matt on his first ride! |

Rides, people, mountains, games... |
|
In line for one of the rides...note the girl's "fair hair". This seems to be quite the business here--"fair hair" and face painting... |
|
We are on our way out. Note the line to get in--smiles. |
This will probably be the last entry for a bit. Matt and I are heading home!!!!
Smiles,
Susan
